Hello, i have a strange problem using SEAM.
I have a Stateless Session Bean:
@Stateless
@Name("ProcessStarter")
//@JndiName("ProcessStarterBean")
public class ProcessStarterBean implements ProcessStarter{
...
public void startProcess(ExeWorkflowCreator creator)
throws ExeDocFrameworkException {
Which is invoked by another stateless Session Bean:
@Stateless
@Name("menuPrincipal")
public class MenuPrincipalBean implements MenuPrincipal {
@EJB ProcessStarter processStarter;
public String startDemoWorkflow2() {
System.out.println("Starte Demo Workflow 2...");
try {
processStarter.startProcess(new DemoWorkflow2());
}
catch (ExeDocFrameworkException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return "home";
}
This WORKS.
But now, i want this MenuPrincipalBean to invoke a normal Java Class called "DemoWorkflow" like this:
public String startDemoWorkflow() {
System.out.println("Starte Demo Workflow...");
try {
DemoWorkflow dw = new DemoWorkflow();
dw.startProcess(dw);
}
with DemoWorkflow being a normal Java class (no sessionbean) which inherits another normal Java class which will then do the method-invocation and the ejb-injection.
DemoWorkflow inherits ExeWorkflowGate:
@Name("ExeWorkflowGate")
public class ExeWorkflowGate {
@EJB ProcessStarter processStarter;
public void startProcess(ExeWorkflowCreator exeWorkflowCreator)
throws ExeDocFrameworkException {
processStarter.startProcess(exeWorkflowCreator);
}
I found out that injection doesnt work here, because the injected beanAttribute is always NULL. Furthermore, i tried everything to invoke the EJB with a JNDI-lookup, but it always says that the Bean is not bound...
The strange thing is that the injection from sessionBean---->sessionBean works, but normal class ----> sessionBean doesnt work.
I also tried to let the DemoWorkflow participate in SEAM Framework by adding @Name("...") annotation...
Anymore suggestions or explanations por favor ?
Thx in advance
